Vintage Thonet No. 763 Bentwood Chairs by Ton
The No. 763 Bentwood Chair was first shown in Michael Thonet's 1928 Catalog. Since then, it has been widely used in residential and contract applications.
In the 1840s, Michael Thonet began experimenting with furniture made by bending wood steamed into a soft and pliable state. Over the next 20 years, Michael Thonet and his sons developed the processes and machines that would allow them to build bentwood furniture in unprecedented quantities. In this period, he developed what has become thought of as the "traditional" Michael Thonet-designed bentwood chair: one featuring a backrest and back legs made from a single piece, a rounded cane or laminated seat, and front legs. To reduce the number of pieces used in building chairs, he had to connect the main elements on different planes. This could only be achieved by bending the beechwood.

Local Delivery:
Most local deliveries within the East Bay and San Francisco can be arranged between $79–$200 and are typically completed within a few days. This rate doesn’t apply to all items and does not cover areas like San Jose, Santa Rosa, Napa Area, or Sacramento, which may incur higher fees. White glove service or specific situation are not applied with that pricing. If you're unsure, please reach out before purchasing.
Los Angeles Delivery: Twice a month, we travel to Los Angeles and can offer delivery for a flat rate of $199. This service applies to locations near Downtown Los Angeles and Santa Monica only. For customers who prefer to pick up, we can bring your order to a Downtown LA meeting point for $99, with pickup arranged by the customer. Please contact us in advance to confirm availability and exact logistics.
Shipping (Outside the Bay Area):
Effective immediately, we are no longer offering shipping services outside of the Bay Area. Due to several unfortunate incidents beyond our control, we have incurred significant losses and customer service issues related to third-party freight carriers handling large furniture.
For all out-of-area orders, shipping must now be arranged directly by the customer through a carrier of their choice, such as U-Ship. Full payment must be completed by wire transfer before any item is released for pickup. The customer is fully responsible for coordinating pickup, packing, shipping, and insurance.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. This decision was not made lightly, but several issues and financial losses have made it necessary in order for us to continue operating responsibly and fairly.
